Processing methods of forming an electrically conductive plug to a node location

ABSTRACT

Methods of forming electrical connections with an integrated circuitry substrate node location are described. According to one aspect of the invention, a substrate node location is laterally surrounded with insulating material and left outwardly exposed. Conductive material is deposited over the exposed node location. Subsequently, a photomaskless etch of the conductive material is conducted to a degree sufficient to leave a plug of conductive material over the node location. In a preferred implementation, the insulating material with which such node location is surrounded constitutes insulating material portions which are provided relative to conductive lines which are formed over the substrate. In another preferred implementation, such conductive lines form a grid of insulating material which, in turn, defines the node location. According to a preferred aspect of the invention, a plurality of insulated conductive lines are formed over a substrate. At least some of the conductive lines constitute word lines and at least some of the conductive lines constitute bit lines. The lines are preferably formed to define and laterally surround an active area substrate location. The substrate location is preferably surrounded by at least four of the lines. Conductive material is deposited over the substrate and the conductive lines and in electrical contact with the node location. The conductive material is then removed to a degree sufficient to form an isolated plug of conductive material over the node location and between the four conductive lines.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] This invention concerns processing methods of forming an electrically conductive plug to a node location. This invention also concerns methods of forming an electrical connection with an integrated circuit memory cell node location.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Fabrication of integrated circuitry typically involves forming electrical connections to substrate node locations. In the context of integrated circuit memory devices, such as dynamic random access memory devices, such electrical connections include those which are made to and between storage capacitors and substrate diffusion regions.

[0003] In the past, there have been at least two ways to make such electrical connections. A first way of forming such electrical connections involves depositing a thick insulator material, such as borophosphosilicate glass, over the substrate and then conducting a self-aligned etch thereof to form a contact opening. The contact opening, or at least a portion thereof, is subsequently filled with conductive material. As aspect ratios of such contact openings increase, it becomes more challenging to form such openings and electrical connections. A second way of forming such electrical connections involves depositing a conductive material over the entire substrate, patterning and etching such material to define desired electrical connections, and subsequently forming an insulating dielectric layer over the substrate. Contact openings can then be etched through the dielectric layer. Again, challenges are posed with respect to etching the contact openings through the dielectric layer.

[0004] This invention grew out of concerns associated with improving the manner in which electrical connections are made to or with integrated circuit substrate node locations. This invention also grew out of concerns associated with improving the manner in which electrical connections are made with integrated circuit memory cell node locations.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] Methods of forming electrical connections with an integrated circuit substrate node location are described. According to one aspect of the invention, a substrate node location is laterally surrounded with insulating material and left outwardly exposed. Conductive material is deposited over the exposed node location. Subsequently, a photomaskless etch of the conductive material is conducted to a degree sufficient to leave a plug of conductive material over the node location. In a preferred implementation, the insulating material with which such node location is surrounded constitutes insulating material portions which are provided relative to conductive lines which are formed over the substrate. In another preferred implementation, such conductive lines form a grid of insulating material which, in turn, defines the node location. According to a preferred aspect of the invention, a plurality of insulated conductive lines are formed over a substrate. At least some of the conductive lines constitute word lines and at least some of the conductive lines constitute bit lines. The lines are preferably formed to define and laterally surround an active area substrate location. The substrate location is preferably surrounded by at least four of the lines. Conductive material is deposited over the substrate and the conductive lines and in electrical contact with the node location. The conductive material is then removed to a degree sufficient to form an isolated plug of conductive material over the node location and between the four conductive lines.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0017] This disclosure of the invention is submitted in furtherance of the constitutional purposes of the U.S. Patent Laws “to promote the progress of science and useful arts” (Article 1, Section 8).

[0018] Referring to FIG. 1, a semiconductor wafer fragment is shown generally at 10 and comprises a semiconductive substrate 12. In the context of this document, the term “semiconductive substrate” is defined to mean any construction comprising semiconductive material, including, but not limited to bulk semiconductive materials such as a semiconductive wafer (either alone or in assemblies comprising other materials thereon), and semiconductive material layers (either alone or in assemblies comprising other materials). The term “substrate” refers to any supporting structure, including, but not limited to, the semiconductive substrates described above. In the preferred embodiment, substrate 12 comprises an integrated circuit memory array area and a peripheral area. For purposes of the discussion herein, only a portion of the memory array area is shown.

[0019] A plurality of isolation oxide runners 14 are formed within substrate 12. One method of forming such runners is by trench and refill techniques in which substrate portions are etched away and back-filled with isolation oxide. Subsequent planarization provides the illustrated isolation oxide runners. Respective pairs of runners such as pairs 16 define continuous active areas or regions therebetween, such as respective active areas or regions 18. Active areas or regions 18 constitute continuous active areas which are formed within or relative to substrate 12. A plurality of laterally spaced apart insulative conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26, at least some of which are word lines, are formed over substrate 12 and disposed generally transverse individual isolation oxide runners 14. The illustrated conductive lines are formed, in the preferred embodiment, to have respective insulative or insulating sidewall spacers (shown in FIG. 2 but not specifically designated) and insulative or insulating caps (shown in FIG. 2 but not specifically designated).

[0020] Conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26 constitute a first series of conductive lines which are formed relative to substrate 12. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, substrate 12 supports integrated circuitry which forms memory cells. Even more preferably, such memory cells constitute dynamic random access memory cells. Accordingly, word line pair 22, 24 share an intervening contact of adjacent pairs of memory cells, which in turn share a diffusion region (described below) in substrate 12. Electrical isolation between the adjacent pairs of memory cells is provided by intervening conductive isolation lines 20, 26 which are formed in conjunction with the formation of word lines 22, 24. Lines 20, 26 in operation are connected with ground or a suitable negative voltage and effectively substitute for the electrical isolation formerly provided by field oxide.

[0021] Referring to FIGS. 1-3, conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26 have respective conductive line tops 21, 23, 25, and 27. Such line tops are defined by the insulating or insulative caps mentioned above. A plurality of laterally spaced apart insulated conductive memory cell bit lines 28, 30, and 32 are formed elevationally outwardly of conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26 and their respective conductive line tops, and are disposed generally transverse relative to the word lines. For purposes of illustration and clarity, the bit lines are indicated in FIG. 1 as a second series of parallel lines at least portions of which are disposed elevationally over the first series lines 20, 22, 24, and 26. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, individual bit lines are formed elevationally over respective individual isolation oxide runners 14 as best shown in FIG. 2 for bit line 28 in corresponding extent and shape.

[0022] As formed, the first and second series of conductive lines collectively constitute a plurality of upstanding devices, with individual conductive word/isolation lines and bit lines constituting a grid of insulated lines which are formed relative to substrate 12.

[0023] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, a plurality of node locations 34, 36, and 38 with which electrical connection is desired are defined by the grid of upstanding devices and between conductive line pairs 20, 22, and 22, 24, and 24, 26 which are formed elevationally outwardly thereof. Although only three node locations are shown for purposes of illustration, other node locations are formed over the array area defined by substrate 12. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, node locations 34, 36, and 38 constitute respective diffusion regions 40, 42, and 44 which are outwardly exposed. As formed, node locations 34, 36, and 38 also constitute first substrate locations which are laterally surrounded with insulating material. In the illustrated example, such insulating material constitutes insulative portions of first series conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26, and second series conductive bit lines 28, 30, and 32 which are formed elevationally outwardly of and generally transverse relative to conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, the conductive word/isolation and bit lines are formed to define an adjacent active area substrate location (corresponding to respective node locations 34, 36, and 38) which is laterally surrounded by four of the insulated conductive lines. In this example, two of such lines constitute first series lines, and two of such lines constitute second series lines.

[0024] In the illustrated example, a mask can and preferably is utilized to define and expose a plurality of areas 37 (FIG. 1) proximate respective bit lines 28, 30, and 32. Areas 37 constitute areas which laterally expose respective sidewall spacers over the diagrammatically illustrated bit lines 28, 30, and 32. Typically, such sidewall spacers are formed from an oxide or nitride material. In a preferred embodiment, the sidewall spacers of conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26 comprise a nitride material while those of bit lines 28, 30, and 32 comprise an oxide material. The exposed sidewall portions 37 of bit lines 28, 30, and 32 are etched in a wet etch comprising HF at a substantially higher rate than the nitride material sidewalls of conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26. Accordingly, such enables contact to be made relative to the bit lines without appreciably etching any inadvertently exposed sidewall material of conductive lines 20, 22, 24, and 26.

[0025] Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, a fragmentary portion of the FIG. 1 substrate is shown. After node locations 34, 36, and 38 are surrounded with the preferred insulating material and with the bit line conductive sidewall portions being effectively exposed, conductive material 46 is formed or deposited over the grid and the exposed node locations. Exemplary materials for conductive material 46 are polysilicon, tungsten, and the like. Preferably, such conductive material is chemical vapor deposited to achieve a degree of conformal coverage. Accordingly, conductive material 46 is deposited over the conductive lines and in electrical connection with the respective node locations as shown in FIG. 5. Conductive material 46 is also preferably in contact with the exposed portions of the bit line sidewalls corresponding to areas 37 (FIG. 1), thereby forming an electrical connection with node location 36, which, in turn, will form a connection through a word line/gate with a storage node location described below. In the preferred embodiment, a desired amount of conductive material can be less than the height of adjacent conductive lines, but an amount which is sufficient to fill the spaces between the lines.

[0026] Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, conductive material 46 is removed to a degree sufficient to form isolated plugs 48, 50, and 52 of conductive material (FIG. 6) respectively, over node locations 34, 36, and 38. Plug 52 is shown in its cross-sectional entirety in FIG. 7. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, a photomaskless etch is conducted of conductive material 46 (FIG. 5) to a degree which is sufficient to remove the conductive material from elevationally outward of the insulating material constituting portions of the conductive lines, and to a degree which is sufficient to leave plugs 48, 50, and 52 over respective node locations 34, 36, and 38. Accordingly, the photomaskless etch constitutes an etch which is conducted in the absence of any photomasking material laterally proximate the node location. Even more preferably, such etch is conducted in the absence of any photomasking material over the substrate. The photomaskless etch desirably permits conductive material to be removed from outside or outwardly of the illustrated array area without the need for a mask in or over the array area. The preferred etching of conductive material 46 constitutes an isotropic etch of the material to a degree sufficient to completely remove conductive material from over the conductive word/isolation lines, and to expose the insulating material portions of lines 24, 26. Exemplary etches include wet or dry etches, with the latter being preferred. Further, exemplary dry etch chemistries can include one or more of the following: CF₄, SF₆, or NF₃. Accordingly, the conductive material constituting plug 52 is preferably recessed to elevationally below uppermost surfaces or line tops 25, 27.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 8, a layer 54 is formed over substrate 12. Preferably, layer 54 comprises an insulating or insulative material such as borophosphosilicate glass which is formed over the substrate. An exemplary thickness for layer 54 is 0.5 μm to 1.5 μm.

[0028] Referring to FIG. 9, an opening 56 is etched or otherwise formed through insulative layer 54 to outwardly expose conductive material of plug 52 overlying node location 38. Preferably such opening is anisotropically etched to outwardly expose plug 52.

[0029] Referring to FIG. 10, a second, spaced apart substrate location 58 is formed elevationally outward of and in electrical contact with the first substrate location defined by node location 38. In the illustrated and preferred embodiment, the spaced apart first and second substrate locations constitute part of an integrated circuitry memory cell and substrate location 58 constitutes a storage capacitor having a storage node 60, a dielectric layer 62, and cell plate 64. In the illustrated example, at least a portion of the storage capacitor is disposed elevationally outwardly, above or over the previously formed bit lines 28, 30, and 32 (FIG. 1). Accordingly, such constitutes a capacitor-over-bit-line dynamic random access memory cell. Other integrated circuit first and second substrate locations are possible, including ones which are not necessarily associated with the above described integrated circuit memory cells.
